oct 23, 2014 (woody modular) by 12k - http://bit.ly/1rqR2Hc - sometimes i just want to have fun and experiment on the modular with well-known themes. today i wanted to do a bit of the classic "buchla bongo"... at least use my make noise optomix to create some wood-like percussion. the main sound is an intellijel shapeshifter being FM'd by a dixie sine wave. it goes into the make noise optomix which is being struck by a function trigger. various LFOs modulate the rate. i decided to throw in another sound on the 2nd channel of the optomix and went for the e350 oscillator and threw an LFO on the pitch. i really like the percussive and wooden textures you can get out of FM sounds and the optomix. how i'd use them in my own productions, i don't know yet... but it's fun to play around. i find with modular synthesis that i need to have a rough idea going in of what i want to do. sure, it can change from there, drastically, but at least having an idea.. because you are, after all, building something from the ground up. it's quite the opposite of a standard subtractive synthesizer where there's already a sound there to start. part of the goal of this studio diary is to simply explore ideas.. to see if i can do them and maybe later figure out how, if ever, they'd fit into my compositions.

About to get down and dirty with some synth repair.....
